Story Behind the Art: Originating in France’s Aubusson and Savonnerie weaving centers, French needlepoint rugs are celebrated for their floral medallions, garlands, and decorative scroll motifs. Crafted using petit and gros point stitching on canvas, they became hallmarks of aristocratic interiors during the 17th and 18th centuries.
The late 20th-century expansion of production to China allowed these designs to reach international audiences. Skilled artisans continue to recreate antique-inspired patterns in wool on cotton canvas, blending European elegance with global craftsmanship standards.
